Re: Peirce List Discussion • Jim Willgoose At root we are dealing with a genre of very abstract formal systems.  They have grammars that determine their well-formed expressions and rules that determine the permissible transformations among expressions, but they lack … Continue reading

Re: Peirce List Discussion • HP A computational problem is defined as a set of problem instances with specified properties.  An algorithm solves a problem if it computes the correct answer to every problem instance in that set. The use … Continue reading

Re: Peirce List Discussion • HR Although it’s fair to say that most of my university coursework leaned to the theoretical side of things, I did cobble together a respectable enough background in computing, statistics, and industrial-organizational styles of systems … Continue reading

Re: Peirce List • Jim Willgoose It’s almost 50 years now since I first encountered the volumes of Peirce’s Collected Papers in the math library at Michigan State, and shortly afterwards a friend called my attention to the entry for … Continue reading

Peirce’s Law

Peirce’s law is a logical proposition that states a non-obvious truth of classical logic and affords a novel way of defining classical propositional calculus. Continue reading
